Zickans.Autodesk.Build 1.0.0

MSBuild logic for building Autodesk AutoCAD / Civil 3D add-ins against one product year. No binaries, no Autodesk material.

Use it

<PackageReference Include="Zickans.Autodesk.Build" Version="1.0.0" />
<PackageReference Include="Zickans.AutoCAD.API" Version="$(BritechCadYear).0.0" />

Tell it the product year in any one of these ways, whichever your build already uses:

How Example
BritechCadYear -p:BritechCadYear=2027
Year, CADVersion -p:Year=2027
CADTrimVersion -p:CADTrimVersion=27
a configuration name ending in A21..A27 -c "Release A27"

What it gives you

  • BritechCadSeries and BritechCadTfm: the release series (R26.0) and the target framework the year requires - net48 for 2021-2024, net8.0-windows for 2025-2026, net10.0-windows for 2027. 2026 moved to .NET 10 at update 2026.1.2; select that with -p:BritechCad2026Tfm=net10.0-windows.
  • Preprocessor symbols in both common dialects: A27, ACAD_YEAR_2027, and the cumulative ACAD2021_OR_GREATER .. ACAD2027_OR_GREATER / C3D2021_OR_GREATER .. C3D2027_OR_GREATER.

The mistakes it stops

Code Meaning
BTK1002 a Zickans.* package version does not match the year being built
BTK1010 no product year could be determined
BTK1011 the year is outside 2021..2027
BTK1012 the year was only inferred from the framework (warning)
BTK1013 the target framework does not match the year
BTK1014 an Autodesk assembly is about to be copied into build output

BTK1014 is the one that matters most: an add-in must never ship an Autodesk assembly, because it has to bind to the ones of the product it is loaded into.
